Prihranki od naložbe v RPA tehnologijo in uvedbe digitalizacije v računovodsko podjetje

The thesis explores the implementation of Robotic Process Automation (RPA) in a small accounting firm and its potential to accumulate monetary and time savings. The motivation for this research stems from the author’s practical experience in digital transformation projects, where author directly participated in implementing RPA tools in different organizational structures and industries. The main objective of this thesis is to demonstrate the financial and operational benefits of RPA implementation, particularly through the lens of economic indicators that quantify savings. The research approach includes an analysis of five accounting processes automated using RPA technology. The study further provides investment assessment with cost estimation, including a cost-benefit breakdown, ROI estimation, and NPV overview through the years. In depth analysis shows that investment in RPA project is more than justified, and that savings are increasing each year even with possible negative impacts. The key contribution of the thesis is a practical framework for assessing the financial impact of RPA in small businesses. The results confirm that even limited RPA deployments can lead to significant savings and cost reductions. This thesis aims to support decision-makers in understanding both the strategic and economic value of automation in everyday business operations.
